I'm 19 and I just learned that the reason why I have almost no control over my hand when I write or draw is that while I've been using my right hand my whole life, I was born left handed...

And now I've been spending the last hour learning about all of the side effects of my condition. Yep, all of these things describe me perfectly. WELP! Time to learn to use my left hand so I can function properly!

Of course the best part of RTX was all of the people that I met there! A few of these people were friends that I've made on the site, but I got to talk to a lot of random people who made lines go by much faster(I wish I would have gotten some usernames). Immediately after I finished registering, I found Dylon and he showed that he remembered me from last year by poking me in the stomach over and over again and saying "I remember you. Go ahead and talk, I'm just gonna keep doin' this." I was very excited when I randomly bumped into Mika(AblazeAce/@ragehappy), but unfortunately we didn't get to talk for very long.

One of the coolest parts of the weekend happened when I was sitting at a table in the convention center eating some pizza, and a kid and his dad sat down at the table with me. The dad asked me how long I'd been a Rooster Teeth fan, and when I told him that I started watching RvB the day after episode 1 came out he started asking me questions about RT. He wasn't really sure what his son had gotten into, so he wanted to know what my opinion on the community was. I told him that because I grew up as a nerdy, borderline-atheist otaku in family of extremely Christian Rednecks and Mexicans I was raised by Rooster Teeth, and even though I've only recently become an active member of the community, the company has played a huge part in shaping me into who I am today. He said that after talking to me he felt a lot better about his son being involved with a community that produces people as nice and polite as myself and everyone else they'd met there.

Panels I made it to: RWBY, Internet Box

And if you're wondering why I only went to 2, it's because I slept through the Achievement Hunter panel and got caught in a random Dive Kick tournament and missed Master Pancake Theater. Speaking of Dive Kick, that game is fuckin' awesome!!! As a fan of fighting games, this is one of the best ones I've ever played and I'm so glad it got the greenlight on Steam!

On to the final part of this journal, the loot

Slap BandsRWBY poster for a friend who was unable to make it because of a car accident 2 days before RTX(he's fine now)Nuka-Cola posterAnd my favorite purchases from RTX, chibi Kirito and Asuna. I was going to get Silica too, but she didn't have Pina with her so I decided it wasn't worth it if it was missing half of the duo

Oh, and if you're wondering what happened to the posters, one of my friends sat on them as we were leaving Hopdoddy's on the way out of Austin.

So yesterday my friends and I were discussing what new Fire Emblem character would be in the new Smash Bros. They all got into a heated argument about which character would do the best job of replacing Ike as the only fast-heavy/rush character in Smash. When they couldn't come to an agreement they asked me and I responded with "I main Marth and beat the crap out of all of you every time so I honestly don't care who it is." My friend then told me that I'm "as gay as Marth" That was a good comeback and I had no idea how to respond to that.

So, on your recommendation, I checked out Sword Art Online. I really like it! I've got nana (seven) episodes left and it's held me a rapt attention for every one so far.Thanks for directing me to a great anime!

Awesome! I'm glad you got past episode 14 and still like it. A lot of people complain about the change. I'll admit I don't like it as much as the first half, but it's still good!

After you finish that be sure to check out Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai! It's a close second for anime of the year for me. It's one of the funniest anime I've ever seen and just about anyone can relate to it.

I worked on it in '09 and helped with one Cut last year (when they already knew it would be too dry to Burn). The students will still build it, it's not about playing against t.u., it's about building the hell outta bonfire

Since my first bonfire was supposed to be the year that it collapsed in 1999, my parents have been to worried to let me go to a bonfire. And now that we're not playing UT anymore, I dont know if theres ever going to another one.

I was the same way, I had a previous account that I never used, but then when I got serious about the site I made this one.

If you go to A&M I recommend helping with Bonfire

Cool! I went to A&M for a year, I had the wrong major, and I wasn't prepared for college (I partied WAY too much) . It's a blast, even if you study and go to class[link=http://]
